Help flashing a ROM


Recommended Posts

I'm hitting a wall here.

I have an LG G3 D850 AT&T US

 

It's rooted which I checked with the Root Checked app (that was a bit of a pain in itself)

 

Next I needed to unlock the bootloader with TWRP.  Here's where I ran into the problem.

 

I downloaded twrp-2.8.0.0_d850-signed.img going by the instructions on XDA and put it on the phone's SD card.  Used ADP to follow the instructions from here. When I reboot into recovery I get the message "Boot Certification Verify; Secure Booting Error."  The screen then goes black and the LED flashes Red and Blue.  I can press power and volume down to reboot normally.

 

Found the latest version of TWRP (2.8.5.0) and used the same method above with the same results.  Tried all the following with the same results as above:

Used Flashify with both versions

Used TWRP Manager which automatically downloads the latest version.  Says it's successful but I get the same result.

Used Terminal Emulator on the phone to run the commands from there.

 

Can't think of anything else to try.

Hey! I have the same device, Were you trying to Root lollipop? That's a known issue. There is a work around. Might be easier to grab the LG Flash tool and file back to completely stock, Reroot with Stump root on kitkat, flash twrp and follow the guide on xda.

 

 

Here, Follow AutoPrimes guide.. I advise using the flash tool however, start over fresh.

Thanks Keeper!  I wish I would've done that from the get go this morning.  I'm happily on Cyanogen 5.0.2.

Glad I could help!! Personally I'd wait until they get a lot of the quirks ironed out. I imagine at somepoint there's going to be a way easier way of getting TWRP and Lollipop running seamlessly! Just keep ya eyes open in XDA.

For some reason CM12 says that Microsoft Office Mobile isn't compatible with my device (which it was with LG's Lollipop and it is with my son's CM12 on a OnePlus One) so I'm thinking of trying Paranoid Android to see how that is.  Now that TWRP is working perfectly it's real easy to flash different ROMs so I'll just keep trying it until I find one I like.

If you can wait a few days, CloudyG3 2.1 is coming out for our devices, I'm gonna be flashing back to kitkat tomorrow probably and get ready for it!

 

Look here :D We'll only need to flash a modem :D

Awesome!  Here's what I basically spent my day on.  CM12 has a bug (worse than the Office thing I mentioned) that locks the lock screen.  You can press the power button and the screen is responsive to the shut down window but you can't unlock the phone.  Still awful sexy looking, though.

Paranoid Android has a problem where Google Services keeps crashing and since their team basically left to develop Oxygen OS for OnePlus a fix doesn't seem to be incoming.

My next step was to flash Cloudy G3 since I heard it's the best of both worlds for the G3 so I downloaded it and got my device ready only to see it supports the international and Korean versions. Ugh.

Then I flashed Cyanide and while so far it works (still says Office isn't compatible with my device) it's really hax0r-ish.  The default background is black with some skeletons wearing headphones...  Not my cup of tea.

I was almost considering using the LG Flash Tool to go back to stock and updated it to LG's Lollipop (which I didn't like their take on) and wait for CM12 to get better but now it seems I'll just wait with Cyanide on my device until Cloudy comes out (and a couple people test it :p )

That's really weird! Try Illusion ROM or Candy5 they are the best IMO.

 

If you need any help, I'm on IRC freenode #LG-G3

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
    • I asking where you are from or live, because if you don't live in the U.K, why are you so bothered? That is another reason I voted out, E.U and people poking their noses in where they should not be. Sadly we still have it, Trump, and his cronies. Putin as well and no doubt others. It makes no difference what we believe, if we made the right choice or not, we are out. As I said to someone when the news first broke we have voted out, we just need to make the best of it. I have no problems with closer ties to the E.U, we still need to trade. Just don't want to be in their club.
    • So you think I voted out because i am anti-immigrant. I am fed up with those that come over and think that we owe them something. The ones that are at the moment coming over from France where they are already in a safe country because they think and no doubt will get everything chucked at them. While people who were born and bred here get very little. I have nothing against as i have said before those that come here and work. In fact I know full well that our NHS would struggle without them. I do have a problem with those that come over here and try to push their religion and their way of life onto us. My reasons for voting out was because of what the E.U is and is also becoming. I did not agree with Freedom of movement, not because I don't want people over here, but because people need to be checked before being allowed to cross borders and that goes both ways. But my main thing was because the E.U is becoming if not already a united states of Europe. The only reason countries like Poland and Romania joined was because they had no money. When my partner left Poland, she had nothing, Poland had nothing, that is why she left. Wanted to learn something and earn a living. The E.U would have us back according to Michel Barnier. https://www.euronews.com/my-eu...ator-barnier-tells-euronews Why are you so scared to say what country you are in?
